Pointe Blanche:--- The Managing Director of the Harbour Group of Companies Keith Franca resigned from the Harbour Group of Companies since December 31st 2011.

Keith Franca will however, work as a consultant for the Habour Group of Companies for a period of one year.
On November 18th 2011, the supervisory board of the St. Maarten Harbour Holding Company N.V signed a resolution stating that Franca terminated his employment agreement with the Holding and that all parties wish to enter into a mutual agreement under the terms recommended by the Managing Director of the Holding.
